Clinical trials

As a leader in genetic testing for rare disease, PreventionGenetics has the capability to support clinical trials for nearly all germline (inherited) diseases.

Clinical trials are controlled research studies developed with the goal of measuring a drug or intervention's safety and efficacy. They serve as a critical stepping stone in bringing life-changing therapies to market for broad-scale use, and PreventionGenetics is proud to work with many clinical trial sponsors in their effort to identify patients who may be eligible for entry based on their genetic health status.

Founded in 2004 by Dr. James Weber, one of the major contributors to the Human Genome Project, PreventionGenetics has been supporting clinical trials and research initiatives since its inception. With a comprehensive test menu, multiple test methodologies and ordering options, we're able to meet you where you need to be. And the expertise, quality, and human touch we provide to every test is due to the fact that we never forget there is a patient on the other side of every sample.
